Good Morning... just went up to the shop and we still no power. Unfortunately I'm assuming we will be closed as well as tomorrow as for the parts department so please keep that in mind.

As what we are hearing, it could still take several days to get restoration, but we are keeping our fingers crossed that we will be sooner than later.

We are sorry for any inconveniences this is causing you but most likely you are right there with us. Stay safe and hopefully we will be back at it on Monday. Please try and have a good weekend or at least the best that you can.

Good morning ..
As you can gather, we are closed today due to the horrific storm that came barreling through yesterday. We have no power so we cannot carry on with our workload. Please keep checking on this page as we will let you know when we will be open and raring to go.

Please stay safe as I am hearing we are in for another round or two of these awful storms and I'm praying that they do miss us. 

Thank you for your patronage, your patience and looking forward to getting back at it
